“The Prophet (ﷺ) supplicated for rain
(raising his
hands) until I saw or one could see the whiteness of his
armpits.”
Sunan Ibn Majah Book 5, Hadith 469
← Previous Hadith
“A Bedouin came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, I have come to you from people who have no place to graze their flocks and even their male camels have become weak. He mounted the pulpit and praised Allah, then he said: ‘O Allah, send upon us all abundant, wholesome rain, productive and plentiful, sooner rather than later.’ Then the rain came down, and no one came to him from any direction but they said: ‘We have been revived.’”
Sunan Ibn Majah Book 5, Hadith 468 Next Hadith → “Sometimes I remember the words of the poet when I was looking at the face of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) on the pulpit. He did not come down until all the waterspouts in Al-Madinah were filled with rain. And I remember what the poet said:
‘He has a white complexion and rain is sought by virtue of his countenance,
He cares for the orphans, and protects the widows,
These are the words of Abu Talib.”
